Event Details

The New Movement is bringing Christian Finnegan to New Orleans as part of Foburg Comedy.

During Foburg Fest, The New Movement is bringing one of the top stand ups in the country to town. Christian Finnegan has been seen on nearly every channel on the dial and played to packed houses all across the country. On the weekend of March 22nd and 23rd, he comes to the Crescent City for two shows at The New Movement.

Christian is perhaps best known as one of the original panelists on VH1’s “Best Week Ever” and as Chad, the only white roommate in the infamous “Mad Real World” sketch of “Chappelle’s Show”. He can currently be seen on the TBS sitcom “Are We There Yet?” and on History Channel’s “I Love the 1880’s”. He’s also co-host of Zest TV’s upcoming travel show, “CustomNATION”.

Over the past decade, Christian has been a fixture on Comedy Central, having starred in his own one hour stand up special “Au Contraire”, as well as ’Comedy Central Presents”, “Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn” and countless network interstitials. He’s also appeared on “Conan”, “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson”, “Good Afternoon America” and “The Today Show”. Politics junkies will recognize Christian from his many appearances on “Countdown with Keith Olbermann”.

Christian’s two stand up albums, “Two for Flinching” and “Au Contraire!”, are available on iTunes and at Amazon and he’ll soon be recording a third. His music-centric podcast “Audio Spackle” debuts on Cave Comedy Radio in January 2013.
